In parliamentary systems fashioned after the Westminster system, the prime minister is the presiding and actual head of government and head of the executive branch. In such systems, the head of state or the head of state's official representative (i.e. the monarch, president, or governor-general) usually holds a largely ceremonial position, although often with reserve powers.

The prime minister is often, but not always, a member of parliament and is expected with other ministers to ensure the passage of bills through the legislature. In some monarchies the monarch may also exercise executive powers (known as the royal prerogative) that are constitutionally vested in the crown and may be exercised without the approval of parliament.

獨트럭테러•스위스총격에 유럽 경계 강화…성탄•연말연시 비상
The Islamic State militant group claims it inspired the truck attack on a Christmas market in Berlin in which twelve people were killed and around 50 injured.
The terror group made the claim through its Amaq news agency,... saying the attacker was a "soldier of the Islamic State".
This comes as German police have released a Pakistani suspect who was taken into custody shortly after the attack.
Police say there's insufficient evidence against him.
Since the real perpetrator is still believed to be at large,... the authorities have launched a massive manhunt and are urging residents to exercise vigilance.
German ChancellorAngela Merkel, who laid white roses at the scene on Tuesday, said she was "shocked, shaken and deeply saddened" by the terror attack - one of a number in the country this year.

STORYLINE
Europe woke to the news on Saturday morning that embattled Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou had narrowly clung on to power after winning a confidence vote in his Socialist-led parliament on a pledge that he will step aside and form a cross-party caretaker government.
In many European capitals, people seemed surprised upon hearing the news, but many said they were more concerned over the global economic crisis.
"First of all I think it is good (that Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou won the vote), because I think now it is possible to rescue Greece and the eurozone, but the situation is still difficult," said one woman in Berlin.
But another resident was less enthused, saying that in his opinion, Papandreou would be out before Christmas.
Papandreou won the critical parliamentary confidence motion 153-145 after a week of drama in Athens which horrified Greece's European partners, spooked global markets and overshadowed the Group of 20 summit in the French resort of Cannes.
Italy's financial woes were also under the spotlight.
In Rome, residents were reacting to such decisions taken at the G20.

15. Wide of street scene
STORYLINE:
The election campaign in Turkey was being followed with keen interest by members of the Turkish population in Germany, ahead of Sunday's vote.
Turkey's ruling party is likely to win a majority of seats in the parliamentary elections that will highlight the deepening divide between the Islamic-oriented government and opponents who fear religion is encroaching on secular traditions.
Most election voter surveys put the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) well ahead of its rivals, but it is expected to win fewer seats than in the 2002 elections and as a result could have less leverage when the new Parliament faces its first critical test: electing a president.
Turkey's secular establishment, backed by the military and other state institutions, fears that Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's Justice and Development Party seeks to undermine revered secularist principles.
In Berlin some immigrants shared these fears.
"Turkey is a secular country, it is a democracy. If that is not respected, than we cannot say that Turkey is the only secular and democratic country in the region," said an ethnic Turkish man living in Berlin.
Other expatriates were however supportive of the present government.
"I hope the present government stays in power. They have in the last three to four years done a lot and pushed through many reforms. I hope they will continue to do so,'' said one man.
''As far as the EU is concerned the problem is that the EU does not want Turkey to join. That is my opinion," he added.
Erdogan and other party leaders have backgrounds in political Islam, but have vowed to uphold secularism and have pursued Western-style reforms that allowed the country to start European Union membership negotiations in 2005.
The main opposition to the AKP comes from the Republican People's Party, also known as the CHP, a secular party led by Deniz Baykal, a former foreign minister, who has been fighting what the party regards as Islam's encroachment on politics.

STORYLINE
Europe woke to the news on Saturday morning that embattled Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou had narrowly clung on to power after winning a confidence vote in his Socialist-led parliament on a pledge that he will step aside and form a cross-party caretaker government.
In many European capitals, people seemed surprised upon hearing the news, but many said they were more concerned over the global economic crisis.
"First of all I think it is good (that Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou won the vote), because I think now it is possible to rescue Greece and the eurozone, but the situation is still difficult," said one woman in Berlin.
But another resident was less enthused, saying that in his opinion, Papandreou would be out before Christmas.
Papandreou won the critical parliamentary confidence motion 153-145 after a week of drama in Athens which horrified Greece's European partners, spooked global markets and overshadowed the Group of 20 summit in the French resort of Cannes.
Italy's financial woes were also under the spotlight.
In Rome, residents were reacting to such decisions taken at the G20.

STORYLINE
Europe woke to the news on Saturday morning that embattled Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou had narrowly clung on to power after winning a confidence vote in his Socialist-led parliament on a pledge that he will step aside and form a cross-party caretaker government.
In many European capitals, people seemed surprised upon hearing the news, but many said they were more concerned over the global economic crisis.
"First of all I think it is good (that Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou won the vote), because I think now it is possible to rescue Greece and the eurozone, but the situation is still difficult," said one woman in Berlin.
But another resident was less enthused, saying that in his opinion, Papandreou would be out before Christmas.
Papandreou won the critical parliamentary confidence motion 153-145 after a week of drama in Athens which horrified Greece's European partners, spooked global markets and overshadowed the Group of 20 summit in the French resort of Cannes.
Italy's financial woes were also under the spotlight.
In Rome, residents were reacting to such decisions taken at the G20.

15. Wide of street scene
STORYLINE:
The election campaign in Turkey was being followed with keen interest by members of the Turkish population in Germany, ahead of Sunday's vote.
Turkey's ruling party is likely to win a majority of seats in the parliamentary elections that will highlight the deepening divide between the Islamic-oriented government and opponents who fear religion is encroaching on secular traditions.
Most election voter surveys put the ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) well ahead of its rivals, but it is expected to win fewer seats than in the 2002 elections and as a result could have less leverage when the new Parliament faces its first critical test: electing a president.
Turkey's secular establishment, backed by the military and other state institutions, fears that Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's Justice and Development Party seeks to undermine revered secularist principles.
In Berlin some immigrants shared these fears.
"Turkey is a secular country, it is a democracy. If that is not respected, than we cannot say that Turkey is the only secular and democratic country in the region," said an ethnic Turkish man living in Berlin.
Other expatriates were however supportive of the present government.
"I hope the present government stays in power. They have in the last three to four years done a lot and pushed through many reforms. I hope they will continue to do so,'' said one man.
''As far as the EU is concerned the problem is that the EU does not want Turkey to join. That is my opinion," he added.
Erdogan and other party leaders have backgrounds in political Islam, but have vowed to uphold secularism and have pursued Western-style reforms that allowed the country to start European Union membership negotiations in 2005.
The main opposition to the AKP comes from the Republican People's Party, also known as the CHP, a secular party led by Deniz Baykal, a former foreign minister, who has been fighting what the party regards as Islam's encroachment on politics.

Berlin Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about destination Berlin in Germany.
Berlin is Germany's modern capital city, a fascinating European metropolis with a dramatic history in which contemporary architecture merges with the imposing character of a centuries-old city.
The Nokolai Quarter was built by the DDR government as a sort of old town, a European Disneyland for the city's 750th anniversary, a popular area with 'new' medieval buildings that display various guilds and stone statues that surround the city's oldest church.
We travel to nearby Potsdam, a city of castles and gardens and with an old town that features a lively market atmosphere. When the monarchy settled there, so did their armies and with them came craftsmen, merchants and artists from many countries. The castle-like Nauener Tor leads to the Rus...

MUNCHIES Guide to Berlin: The Modern Food Culture

Our host Kavita takes a look at the food from the New Berlin. After the Berlin Wall came down, Berlin experienced great change as artists from all over the world visited, restaurants and bars opened, and the food culture modernized.
Kavita meets Wally, an expat living in Berlin since the 90s, who has experienced the change firsthand and has the stories to tell about it. She then visits Koreans living in Berlin who have mixed their culture with German traditions, then finally heads to Nobelhart & Schmutzig, where German food gets reinvented.

Welcome to Berlin, the capital city of Germany.

The lengthy history encompassing the city often manifests in its eclectic collection of architecture, which you should certainly include on your Berlin tour.
From the towering classical lines of Charlottenburg Palace, built for the Hohenzollern family in the 17th century, to the sleek mirrored sides of the Bahn Tower, you’re bound to find plenty to look at in the city’s downtown area. Fancy a real German lager? Stop by Prater Garten for a brew—built in 1837, it’s one of the handful of buildings that has survived both World Wars. You can sit outside and responsibly enjoy your drink, or, if the weather turns on you, head inside to enjoy a hearty German meal.
Ready to check out the rest of the city? You’re in luck. Berlin sightseeing is easy: Though the sprawling city has excellent public transit, Berlin is geared toward pedestrians, and you can access much of the city center on food or by bicycle. For a truly extraordinary experience, visit Museum Island, located in the Spree River. It features five museums, among them the Altes, completed in 1830 and devoted to antiquities. The newest structure on the premises, built in 1930, is the Pergamon Museum. Here you can explore the art of numerous cultures, or wander through a replica of the Ishtar Gate.
Are you one of those people who only starts to wake up after the sun goes down? If you’re looking for a thriving nightlife, Berlin is the place to go. When the sun sets on the city, the party really begins, and you can find any number of clubs where you can dance until long after the sun comes up.

Today the 1.3 kilometer long wall stands as a memorial to freedom and it is covered in art and graffiti. Right now we're visiting Brandenburg Gate. This gate dates back to the 18th Century. We're here at Tiergarten, one of the biggest parks in the city. MauerPark is a hipster hangout. If you head over to the Bear Pit you can catch some karaoke and musical performances. If you want to spot some cool street art, then head over to Friedrichshain. You can't come to Berlin and not eat a Currywurst! This is the city's most popular fast food snack. The sausage is served with a ketchup and curry powder concoction. Up next we're at the Reichstag building which has a pretty cool glass dome on top. This dome is actually open to visitors and it offers 360 degree views of the city. Today we're visiting Tempelhof, a re-purposed airport here in Berlin for leisure activities and sports. If you enjoy museums and art galleries you'll want to visit Berlin's Museum Island. They actually have five different museums here and if you get a daily pass for 18 Euros you get access to all five. We are now visiting the Holocaust Memorial in Berlin. It is also known as the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. Charlottenburg Palace is the largest palace in Berlin and the only surviving royal residence in the city. Checkpoint Charlie was one of the crossing points between East Berlin and West Berlin during the Cold War. Located near Alexanderplatz, The Berlin TV Tower offers a great lookout over the city. Chocolate! Ritter Sport is a chocolate brand that is sold all over Germany, and while in Berlin we couldn't resist sampling a few of the different varieties. Berlin Cathedral is located on Museum Island and it's one of the most beautiful churches in the city. If Currywurst is to your liking, you'll want to check out this quirky museum devoted to Berlin's favorite sausage. Renting a bike is a great way to get around the city. Most places will rent out bikes at 10 Euros per day. For a leisurely afternoon, hop on a boat and enjoy a tour down the River Spree. Of course, you cannot come to Berlin and not eat a Wurst or a sausage. The Friedrichshain flea market takes place every Sunday and it's a great place for people watching and a little browsing. The Germans sure know how to enjoy a hearty breakfast, and we recommend you try it too.
We couldn't resist visiting yet another cat cafe while we were in Berlin.
While in Berlin we enjoyed a hearty meal of Schnitzel. It's quite easy to get around Berlin using the U-bahn and S-bahn system. In Berlin, there is a big Turkish population and that means there is awesome Turkish street food. And that's Berlin for you! A city that has risen from the ashes of the war, which is now bursting with art, music, and life.
Have you been to Berlin? We'd love to hear your favourite things about the city in the comments below.

We spend a full day exploring the city of Berlin. We start off taking a walk through Tiergarten, a huge park in the centre of the city. We make our way to Brandenburg Gate, The Reichstag (Parliament) Building, and Holocaust Memorial (The Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe). After that we figure out how to use the U-Bahn (train) to make our way back to the EllingtonHotel, where we’re staying. After that we make our way to East Berlin to check out the East Side Gallery, which is what remains of the Berlin Wall. At the end of our day we head to Markthalle Neun to try some currywurst.

Tiergarten:
For Berliners, Tiergarten Park is the city’s green lung – just like New York’sCentral Park or London’sHyde Park. Close to the city centre and bordering such major sights as the Brandenburg Gate or Potsdamer Platz, the forested grounds cover a spreading 210 hectares, nearly 519 acres – slightly more than Hyde Park.
Tiergarten Park is very much at the heart of Berlin life – attracting joggers, skaters, cyclists and walkers, as well as those who just want to relax in the sun. The park’s spreading green lawns are popular for family picnics, ball games or simply unwinding and taking it easy – an ideal place to recharge your batteries on a break from some serious shopping or seeing the sights.
Brandenburg Gate:
The Brandenburg Gate is one of the most iconic sights in today’s vibrant Berlin. More than just Berlin’s only surviving historical city gate, this site came to symbolise Berlin’s Cold War division into East and West – and, since the fall of the Wall, a reunified Germany. Architecturally, the sandstone Brandenburg Gate also represents one of the earliest and most attractive examples of a neo-classical building in Germany.
Reichstag:
Reichstag, building in Berlin that is the meeting place of the Bundestag (“Federal Assembly”), the lower house of Germany’s national legislature. One of Berlin’s most famous landmarks, it is situated at the northern end of the Ebertstrasse and near the south bank of the Spree River. Tiergarten Park is directly west of the building, and the Brandenburg Gate is to the south.
The Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe:
In 1999, after lengthy debates, the German parliament decided to establish a central memorial site, the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. The competition to design it was won by the New York architect Peter Eisenman. The memorial was ceremonially opened in 2005.
East Side Gallery:
At 1316 metres long, the open-air art gallery on the banks of the Spree in Friedrichshain is the longest continuous section of the Berlin Wall still in existence. Immediately after the wall came down, 118 artists from 21 countries began painting the East Side Gallery, and it officially opened as an open air gallery on 28 September1990. Just over a year later, it was given protected memorial status.
As the name implies, Markthalle Neun was the ninth (of a total of 14) market halls built in Berlin in the late 19th century. It did a roaring trade for decades but over time succumbed to competition from supermarkets, eventually becoming the haunt of tacky discount stores.

Travel video about destination Berlin in Germany.
Berlin is Germany's modern capital city, a fascinating European metropolis with a dramatic history in which contemporary architecture merges with the imposing character of a centuries-old city.
The Nokolai Quarter was built by the DDR government as a sort of old town, a European Disneyland for the city's 750th anniversary, a popular area with 'new' medieval buildings that display various guilds and stone statues that surround the city's oldest church.
We travel to nearby Potsdam, a city of castles and gardens and with an old town that features a lively market atmosphere. When the monarchy settled there, so did their armies and with them came craftsmen, merchants and artists from many countries. The castle-like Nauener Tor leads to the Russian colony of Alexandrowka and then to Belvedere on the Pfingstberg.
Returning to Berlin we embark on a trip at the Eastern Train Station on the Panorama S-Bahn whose carriages are equipped with large panoramic windows and marvelous views turn the journey into a wonderful adventure.
The OlympiaStadium is still a gigantic and remarkable sight and for the 11th Olympic Games in 1936, the Third Reich spared no expense.
A new city has emerged from its historic past, Berlin, a young metropolis of the third millennium that is increasingly becoming the centre of Europe. This metropolis with a heart is always worth a visit!

Our host Kavita takes a look at the food from the New Berlin. After the Berlin Wall came down, Berlin experienced great change as artists from all over the world visited, restaurants and bars opened, and the food culture modernized.
Kavita meets Wally, an expat living in Berlin since the 90s, who has experienced the change firsthand and has the stories to tell about it. She then visits Koreans living in Berlin who have mixed their culture with German traditions, then finally heads to Nobelhart & Schmutzig, where German food gets reinvented.

Quadriga: Refugee Chaos - "Mama Merkel‘s" downfall? | Quadriga

German ChancellorAngela Merkel has won international kudos for her response to the refugee crisis. However, more and more members of her own party are calling for Germany’s asylum law to be made more restrictive.
Interior ministerThomas de Maizière has sparked consternation in Germany with recent remarks favoring a tougher asylum law. His views contradict the chancellor’s avowed policies. De Maizière is opposed, for instance, to Syrian refugees automatically being granted asylum status or being joined by their families. His objections have received backing from the leader of the Bavarian conservatives, Horst Seehofer, and finance minister Wolfgang Schäuble.
Is Chancellor Merkel still on top in the refugee crisis? And how much support does she have in her own party?

Germany's refugee crisis - Has the mood turned ugly? | Quadriga

As Germany’s refugee crisis continues, politicians and helpers are coming under an increasing threat from the militant right. In Cologne last weekend, a women standing in the city’s mayoral election was badly wounded in a knife attack.
Profiting from people’s fears, the anti-migrant Pegida movement is once again gaining in force. This week, Pegida has been marking the anniversary of its first march, one year ago.
So, who’s driving the debate - the politicians, or a small radical minority?
Our Guests:
Alan Posener is a German-British author and political commentator for the daily „Die Welt“.
Erik Kirschbaum is an American journalist, who has worked for the Reuters news agency in Berlin.
